Advantages: Very cheap, good quality, big shops giving a good variety

Disadvantages: Some items out of proportion, for me quite hard to get to the location.

I will be reviewing Primark from a males perspective.

Primark has never been an easy shop for me to get to. As I cant drive, unless I could get a lift, its either 2 or 3 bus and train trips just to get there. However it was always a shop that I could spend well over an hour in just browsing.

With all shops I've been in being a very good size, mainly aimed towards women clothing but still having a good selection for men, theres always plenty to look at.

I originally used to shop at Primark many years ago, before it became more mainstream and known by a lot more. At this point the prices were rediculous. Litrally a pound for any tee shirt at the time. Trousers could be £3 or £4, sometimes you could pick some up for £2. Now however the prices have gone up a lot, but still very cheap and a lot cheaper than many high street shops. This is why I still go back to this shop whenever I have the chance.

The clothes themselves I do think are of a decent quality, and only seem to be getting better. A lot of the clothes I have purchased, mainly tee shirts and zip up hoodies have mainly fitted well, however I do find myself in store checking each top to make sure its in proportion. I have had some items from there in which may be too long by quite a bit, or too wide. Some may have very short sleeves compared to another on the shelf being the opposite. However if you look about properly you will find something that fits fine.

I have bought recently a few casual and going out shirts, which many friends have compared to shops such as Topman, Burton's and River Island, but my top being sometimes a quarter of the price but just as good quality.

I would highly reccommend trying on the clothes in store however as like mentioned, items which are the same do tend to come slightly different and fit differently. Its always best to get exactly what you want when you buy it.

Secondly I would be very careful when washing and drying these clothes as I have had some shrink a fair bit and go out of proportion once again.

After having several hoodies wash up not too great, I now get them from other places, but nonetheless keep on getting the rest of my clothes from this great store. With summer coming up, and a holiday booked, I plan to go to this shop many times just to get some great, lively and cheap outfits!

Definatenly a good shop for cheap but quality purchases.

Summary: Easy to pick up something most people will love at a great price!
